Autumn Trees at Make My Monday

By
It's week 19 at Make My Monday and this week we want to see your AUTUMN TREES. Take a look at mine


I think I may have mentioned before my 'thing' at the moment for geometric shapes on my cards. Today is no exception and here you can see that I have stamped four trees and then sponged over the squares with autumnal shades of ink. I have threaded some twine through some brown buttons and also added a tag with my sentiment on. I used the oak tree from Stampin' Up Lovely as a Tree stamp set and the colours I have used are: So Saffron, More Mustard, Pumpkin Pie, Really Rust and Chocolate Chip. I also used some Very Vanilla card stock and some Kraft card.
Hope you can find the time to pop over and take a look - my design team have some lovely samples to show you. See you soon - Jacqueline xx

    I agree the tiled layout works really well and again those autumn colours are fabulous. I'm so excited about this MMM theme - I love all things autumnal, the colours, the leaves, the trees...! Vx

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr
